Fans of Deadpool will remember the film’s end credits scene in which the Merc with a Mouth teased the time-travelling cyborg Cable would join him for a sequel.
Since Deadpool’s release, fans have been speculating over older action stars like Liam Neeson, Dolph Lundgren, Stephen Lang or Ron Perlman for the part.
While Reynolds has kept his cards very close to his chest, he and Jackman have posted some very revealing pictures together.

The pictures show Reynolds and Jackman with the former Bond himself, leading fans to speculate that Brosnan has been cast as Cable.
One fan group have even photoshopped the picture with Brosnan dressed as the character.
Some might just dismiss it as a casual meet up, but why else would they be hanging out when Brosnan fits the grey-haired action role so perfectly?
The stars shared the snaps with the hashtag #wolverinebonddeadpool.
There is also the fact that Jackman recently said a Wolverine Deadpool movie would be a perfect fit.
The Aussie actor will soon star in Logan, his ninth and supposedly final film as the X-Men superhero.

However Reynolds has been publicly adamant that he wants to get Jackman to change his mind.
Marvel fans better keep their fingers crossed for such a team up. Just think how many Bond jokes Deadpool could make.
Deadpool 2 will be released in 2018.
